Today, we are introducing EFS Archive, a new storage class for Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) optimized for long-lived data that is rarely accessed. With this launch, Amazon EFS supports three Regional storage classes: EFS Standard – Powered by SSD storage and designed to deliver submillisecond latency for active data. EFS Infrequent Access (EFS IA) – Cost-optimized for data accessed only a few times a quarter, and that doesn’t need the submillisecond latencies of EFS Standard. EFS Archive – Cost-optimized for long-lived data accessed a few times a year or less and offering similar performance to EFS IA. All Regional storage classes deliver gigabytes-per-second throughput and hundreds of thousands of IOPS performance and are designed for eleven nines of…

Amazon CloudFront allows you to securely deliver static and dynamic content with low latency and high transfer speeds. With CloudFront Functions, you can perform latency-sensitive customizations for millions of requests per second. For example, you can use CloudFront Functions to modify headers, normalize cache keys, rewrite URLs, or authorize requests. Today, we are introducing CloudFront KeyValueStore, a secure global low-latency key value datastore that allows read access from within CloudFront Functions, enabling advanced customizable logic at the CloudFront edge locations. Previously, you had to embed configuration data inside the function code. For example, data for determining if a URL should be redirected and which URL to redirect the viewer to. When embedding configuration data with the function code, every small…

I can’t believe it’s been 15 years since Amazon CloudFront was launched! When Amazon S3 became available in 2006, developers loved the flexibility and started to build a new kind of globally distributed applications where storage was not a bottleneck. These applications needed to be performant, reliable, and cost-efficient for every user on the planet. So in 2008 a small team (a “two-pizza team“) launched CloudFront in just 200 days. Jeff Barr hinted at the new and yet unnamed service in September and introduced CloudFront two months later. Since the beginning, CloudFront has provided an easy way to distribute content to end users with low latency, high data transfer speeds, and no long-term commitments. What started as a simple cache…

With AWS Resource Explorer, you can search for and discover your resources, such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, Amazon Kinesis data streams, and Amazon DynamoDB tables, across AWS Regions. Starting today, you can also search across accounts within your organization. It takes just a few minutes to turn on and configure Resource Explorer for an entire organization or a specific organizational unit (OU) and use simple free-form text and filtered searches to find relevant AWS resources across accounts and Regions. Multi-account search is available in the Resource Explorer console, anywhere in the AWS Management Console through the unified search bar (the search bar at the top of every AWS console page), using the AWS Command Line Interface…
